I'm tired, and it's only Monday

Well, today started with a wake up pain from my bicep muscles. They were in a lot of pain from moving the furniture yesterday. So I skipped the morning strength workout and just had breakfast(oatmeal=120). As soon as the kids were ready, we went to Shoprite(about 9am) to buy the next couple of months worth of meat(chicken, pork, ground turkey and a minimal amount of red meat) and some random produce and frozen products that were on sale. That was a bit of a chore with the kids, but they were pretty good because I gave them jobs to do. Then when we got home, the kids played outside for a while and I had to sort and wrap the meat. That is a job!! The morning passed quickly.

As soon as the kids got on the bus, I had my lunch(510), which was a weird combo. I had a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, 2 mini egg rolls and some chips. After lunch I did some errands and wound up at Kohl's to spend the rest of my gift cert. I found 2 short sleeve shirts that look really cute and a 3/4 length sleeve shirt that is adorable. It was in the Misses section and it is really in style. I can't wait to wear it!!

When I got home, I had my favorite snack--a burrito(280). For dinner I made a roast beef in the crock pot with a great home made sauce of ketchup, brown sugar, pepper, steak sauce, lemon juice, beef broth. Once it was done cooking, I shredded it and put it on a kaiser roll(525). I really enjoyed the change for dinner because I sometimes get bored with all the chicken and pork that we eat. So my total for today is 1435 and I will have a serving of popcorn in a few minutes to make the total 1500.

Tonight before dinner I did manage to do my 30 minutes of cardio workout. The muscles in my arms still hurt, but I hope they are better tomorrow morning because I intend to do a strength work out--my new one. Tomorrow is a 1400 calorie day and I am a bit worried. I intend to keep it light through lunch so that I can have a potato of some kind with dinner if I want to.
